Ice over ?

[connor]

We'll be coming up to do some deer hunting opening weekend. I usually pack a rod or two along for the trip. If it starts to ice over can someone keep me informed?

The flowage is starting to ice over. The bays are all iced in and most of the main body has a thin layer of ice. The temps this morning were single digits and no wind. It should be making ice all day today. The long range weather forcast looks like it will not get above freezing.

Heard there was a bunch of snow in the snow belt lately. Any of it hit the flowage? Not good for making ice.

[The Tiny Fisherman]

Hey Pete, your still kicking! Anyway, the Flowage opened up again with all the high winds. Some bays are sill froze over and have snow on them. There isn't as much snow as they predicted, but this afternoon maybe different. See you and repeat later in the week at the boat landing.

[WalleyesDanceInMyMind]

Hey Tiny. Good to see you here again too! Hopefully the bay by the boat landing is still froze over. You can bet we will be there to check it out tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully we run into you. Maybe there is enough ice to put the shack out at the landing?

Fished last Saturday afternoon right out from the Sportsman's landing. Caught one small walleye and two perch. 2.5" ice. Fished Sunday afternoon same spot. One hammerhandle northern and a 17" walleye. 3" of ice. Couple other flags both days. Back at it this weekend. Was it cold enough this past week so far to make good ice?

I was wondering if anyone went out lately, if so how thick is the ice?
